«Mientras dormían» is the crime novel by Donna Leon, published by Seix Barral in paperback (288 pages, in Spanish).
Commissario Guido Brunetti investigates a priest of inappropriate behavior who teaches religion classes to his daughter Chiara, and a nun's suspicions about the deaths of elderly people in a care home. The plot exposes the economic and ideological interests that protect corruption in the upper echelons of the Catholic Church.
Sixth installment of the Commissario Guido Brunetti series, originally published as «Quietly in Their Sleep» in 1997.
For readers of mystery and noir fiction set in Venice, and followers of Commissario Brunetti's investigations.
Donna Leon is the American author of a series of crime novels set in Venice, Italy, featuring the fictional hero Commissario Guido Brunetti. The novels are written in English and have been translated into many foreign languages, although – at Leon's request – not into Italian, as she formerly lived there, still visits monthly, and prefers not to have recognition in the country.
